    My ISP offers free traffic during 2:00 to 7:00, so I remote desktop to my old PC (OS: XP) which runs uTorrent and I usually set it to shut down at 7:00 AM.

    Problem is I get the message "If you shut down this remote computer, no one can use it until someone at the remote location manually restarts it. Do you want to continue shutting down?" and the PC just sits there waiting for a confirmation.

    Is there a way to disable / bypass this and shut the PC down anyway?

    Those two replies are for more clarification, did you even read them?!
    And those other links are either unresolved or unrelated. Um... Thanks I guess?!
